prosopagnosia: inability to recognize faces

The area of the brain associated with the recognition of faces and the recognition of other familiar objects is the fusiform gyrus. This is the part of the brain affected with the condition of "face blindness."

The post central gyrus lies directly posterior to the precentral gyrus. Both of these gyrus are located in the brain and are also almost parallel to one another.

The cingulate gyrus

The dentate gyrus receives input from the cortex, and sends output to the hippocampus proper
